What are the popular tattoo Styles?
Hervey Bay tattoo artists are known for their diverse styles and techniques, with bespoke and personal body art of every style and subject now experiencing an explosion in popularity.
I have an extensive portfolio and experience in all styles and techniques including Cybersigilism, Neo-traditional, Tribal, New School, Black and Grey, Japanese, Nordic/Fantasy and Water Colour. I specialise in Ultra Fine line, Colour and Script.
Just about anybody can pierce me, right?
Piercing may seem simple, but can have serious long term repercussions when performed by inexperienced and under-trained personnel. Experienced piercing Professionals know the different and individual characteristics of skin, where to pierce to avoid blood vessels and other important structures, how to properly place a piercing to ensure it will settle into the correct place, and a myriad of other pre and post considerations. Professionals ONLY use needle and clamp technique with medical grade instruments to avoid the damage and trauma to delicate cartilage and tissue. This method provides a safe, fast, accurate and generally pain free experience.
I am fully qualified, medically trained and have over 20 years of full body piercing and ear styling experience.
I strive to keep you informed and comfortable before, during and after your new piercings, and Infants, Kids and Teens are a speciality.
All piercings include Premium Range Jewellery at no extra cost.
What is True Permanent-Makeup?
Permanent-makeup and cosmetic tattooing has become very popular in the Hervey Bay region, especially for those wanting natural looking yet long lasting brows, eyeliner and full lips. Permanent-makeup (sometimes referred to as as cosmetic tattooing though the practice is quite different) allows you to maintain a fresh and vibrant “just made up” look 24/7 for many years without the need for regular touch-ups.
For brows, modern best practice is performed by genuine licensed and experienced “full dermal” tattooists with additional Beauty industry training. I am also a fully qualified beautician through Madame Korner Institute and a Certified Trainer in all elements of Cosmetic Tattooing, Micro Pigmentation up to and including Advanced Degree level.
Using the latest nano needles and top-grade permanent inks, I work with your existing brows to create, shape and colour each individual fine hair layer. Your brows take on a natural and consistent look, perfectly matched to your preferred colouring, style and face shape. Or, you may want a bold look to your brows, with strong colouring and shape for a confident and individual vibe. The choice is yours.
If you are a little unsure about going True Permanent initially, why not try a semi-permanent option to see how the look works for you? Ask me about the options available.
In the hands of an experienced and trained professional , True Permanent-Makeup Tattooing represents excellent value and produces outstanding long term results without the skin trauma, scarring, and the temporary nature of microblading and other sub-dermal practices.
WHAT DOES POST-SURGICAL AND MASTECTOMY ENTAIL?
Often, surgery and Mastectomy can leave areas of trauma and scarring on the body, and can have a detrimental effect on a person’s self esteem and body image. Working on damaged skin and scar tissue is a very specialised skill, and to be able to transform or integrate these into a design that is both visually pleasing and personally significant takes artistic skill, vision and understanding.
I am a specialist in scar tissue integration and covers, as well as post-mastectomy decoration, including floral arrangements and 3D re-creation of nipple and areola. My discreet and private studio ensures you are in a completely relaxed, safe and comfortable environment.
How do I choose the Right Artist and Studio ?
When choosing an artist and studio for your tattoo and piercing, it is important to do your research and find someone who is experienced, skilled, and able to create the design you have in mind. Some tips for finding the right artist and studio include:
Look for Examples of their Work and Reviews online.
Ask for recommendations from friends or family who have gotten tattoos and piercings.
Check for current certifications and accreditation.
Visit the studio, ensuring that it is clean and hygienic, with superior infection control practices in place.
Make sure the artist has time for your questions and concerns.
Am I in good hands ?
In addition to a 4 year apprenticeship and a further 7 years additional training in the medical and beauty fields, I have been in practice for over 20 years. I continuously study and perfect techniques, trends and styles from around the globe and use only the very best equipment, the highest quality inks, and take your safety and health seriously. By choosing me as your artist, you can be assured that your new piercings are performed to the highest standard, supported by real-word experience, and your Tattoochique tattoo is a beautiful and meaningful one-of-a-kind work of art that you will be proud to wear for a lifetime.
